Hi everybody,
I'm new here, and new to photography in general, and I have a question which may or may not have belonged in the "beginner" section, but in looking for the answer, it occured to me this technique I'm looking for may fall into a more advanced category. But please forgive me if this is an easy issue.
I'm trying to figure out how to make the colors in my photos look "smooth", for lack of a better or more technical term. In other words, make the colors look more subdued, or soft?? Almost like there's an even hue covering them... Really, I'm so new I even have a hard time trying to describe the look that's probably obvious to experienced pros.
Here's some examples I copied and pasted from the winner's gallery. They all have that certain look to their colors and lighting. Ok, thanks for your help!
